Chapter 28 - The Cursed Place

What I want the most is a freedom

The moon and windy air become my accompanies

And conquer the world

Huang Jing Er

***

Actually, Huang Jing Er is enjoying it when a lot of girls look at her while she is walking on the street. She feels comfortable walking around as a man because no one will make a problem with her and then she can enjoy this beautiful scenery peacefully. She can see a lot of people walking with their family but why does her heart feel so painful? Huang Jing Er never knows why her heart became so hurt this time so she decided to walk again while forgetting the weird sensation in her chest right now.

Huang Jing Er just walked around and this is her first time walking around by herself without Xiao Ran or An Ping. They must be so tired so she let them take a rest for a while. Moreover during the journey, Xiao Ran and An Ping couldn't sleep.

Huang Jing Er walking to a riverbank and sitting over there alone. She is still thinking about a name in her head. The name is...

Li Jun Jie.

Who is Li Jun Jie? Huang Jing Er lays her back on the ground while she looks at the beautiful moonlight tonight while closing her eyes and hears the song of the darkest night. She feels so comfortable here. Actually, Huang Jing Er is so tired but she can't sleep. A lot of things are in her head but right now she just wants to be alone.

Just in a few minutes, Huang Jing Er hears footsteps between the grasess. The riverbank should be no one comes but what is it? She can't open her eyes. Huang Jing Er feels her body is so thin.

"Bring him now."

Huang Jing Er hears someone's voice. She doesn't know who it is but she can smell the familiar scent. It's not long ago that she smelled that scent. Huang Jing Er tried to communicate with Xiao Ran and An Ping but failed. Huang Jing Er tries to be calm. She doesn't understand why there are people who want to kidnap her. Do they know that she is a girl? Or everything they do is just a random act? But that's not make sense. It's not a random act. They must aim something by doing this.

Then Huang Jing Er remembered the rumor about the manor that she had visited that day. Is it related? Huang Jing Er guesses that they must bring her to the manor and the scent is from the flowers but who is the actor behind this?

Huang Jing Er still can't think of someone who is behind this because she knows no one in this Capital City. Huang Jing Er just arrived yesterday but now she has a problem.

Huang Jing Er can feel the thick atmosphere surrounding her and the scent prohibits her from using her magic. Huang Jing Er knows that she is in the manor that she visited a few hours ago from the flowers scent. The scent somehow makes Huang Jing Er feel so dizzy. It's so weird and everything becomes dark and she can hear nothing.

When Huang Jing Er awoke. She looks around and sees a lot of people. Huang Jing Er looks at their faces, which are filled with desperation and sadness. They don't say anything and this fact makes her so curious what's happened here? Huang Jing Er decided to ask a young girl that sat beside her.

"Hey, what's happened here?" Huang Jing Er asked.

"Don't you know this place is cursed?" She said as her face looked so terrible. "You can't get out of this place unless you have died." She said.

"Wait! Why do you say something like this?" Huang Jing Er is still confused because she knows nothing. The last memory that she has is when she is in the riverbank and then she wakes up in this place.

Huang Jing Er isn't sure where she is but judging by the scent. She guesses that she is somewhere in the manor but how can just in one night there are a lot of people here? Or? Does this manor become somewhere to hide something? By thinking about this, why just give her a headache.

"Don't you see?!" That girl looked at Huang Jing Er as her eyes looked watery as if describing her distress and sorrow. "Look! We were here for a long time but we can't get out and there are some who have died in this place."

"Who did it?" Huang Jing Er asked but that girl shook her head then embraced herself again.

"No one came and how could they come if this place is just walls?" She said as Huang Jing Er looked around this place built by the high walls. Huang Jing Er looked up but she could see nothing except the mist. This place is so weird and a little bit creepy.

"Wait, you said that there are people who have to die here and no one comes, how do you know that they are dead?"

"They just disappeared through the mist and we can't see the person."

"But there's still a possibility that they are still alive, right?" Huang Jing Er asked her back but she was crying again and made Huang Jing Er become panicked because she thinks that she does nothing to her but her tears just rolling down and wetting her face. "Hey! Don't cry! I will help you to get out of this place." She said.

As Huang Jing Er said in that sentence, Huang Jing Er can feel that everyone looks at her.

"Wait! This is weird how I can see them clearly while this place is so dark? How did they look at me as well?" Huang Jing Er thought but she decided to keep everything in her head while observing the surroundings. " I will get out of this place and no one can bully me!" Huang Jing Ear said in her head.
